Abstract

Rainwater harvesting is a sustainable technology that is currently considered as an alternative method for water supply, through which it seeks to reduce the impact of economic and social development of communities on the environment within which they develop and try to prevent environmental problems. In this sense, the economic benefits are estimated by the implementation of a Rainwater Collection System in the postgraduate building of the University Center of Economic and Administrative Sciences of the University of Guadalajara. It is obtained that the economic benefits for said installation are $ 13,132.15 Mexican pesos per year, without taking into account the contributions to environmental matters.
